Three reasons:
1) Because he can.
2) It is aesthetically more pleasing to him than do .. end
3) curly braces bind tighter than the do .. end notation.

That the Ruby community favors do..end for multi-line blocks is more a
convention than a necessity (of course it helps to adopt Ruby
conventions when writing code that other Rubyists are likely to see, but
otherwise, it hardly matters).
